7 Reasons Why Dolph Ziggler Should Be "Traded" To NXT
5. Because NXT Needs Touring Draws
NXT's added touring schedule is a gift and a curse for the brand. It's a gift because the company believes enough in the talent that they want them on the road as representatives of not just WWE, but specifically of what NXT means as an extension of WWE's branding. However, it's a curse that in some cities, NXT may suffer from a lack of awareness of starpower on their shows to allow significant numbers tickets to be pushed. That problem is solved by adding Dolph Ziggler to NXT. Dolph's a former World Champion, beloved by the "smart mark" fans of NXT, and could have great matches in singles, tags or six-man pairings. If WWE wants to take their touring schedule to the next level and really make NXT live events something special, Ziggler's a quality addition.
